Great spotting of the day.. when I saw the photo I was also thinking of Gregor Mendel!
Great idea Peter! And nice shots Hercule! I love the light shining though the pod.
Very nice thinking!..I really like conmemorating Gregor Mendel and his work :-)
Gran forma de recordarlo, con una grandiosa serie de fotografías .
Spotting of the day!
"Gregor Mendel founded the science of genetics through studying the inheritance of certain traits in pea plants. He would have been 189 years old today."
